[s-cars] Toys for Davey

[Patrick Moores]

Too cool Dave, great video too.....brings me back to when I first fell in love with all things Audi....I fell in love with Audis reading about the sport quattro in Autoweek(still have that issue with the one on the cover)(red)....(I was lucky enough to buy a 1985 4000Q(red) in '87)...one time, don't remember the year('89? I wanted to go up to Road America to watch Audi stomp everyone, while there on a saturday I was cruising the paddock and walked up to the Audi area and then behind me there is a blast of exhaust and the car shuts off brakes squeeking but it didn't have enough momentum to carry it up a small incline to a platform in a tent, the driver jumps out are rips off his helmet clearly agitated and in a hurry and tries to push the car up the ramp but it starts sliding back and he turns to me and yells "push zee cahr!....You!....help me push zee cahr!" so I dropped my gear and ran behind it and pushed on the tail alongside of him up the ramp,
 he turns to me sweating and a huge smile breaks out on his face and he slaps me hard on the shoulder and shakes my hand says "szank you..", I walk away smiling having just met Hans Stuck....later that day you could watch that car launch and get air under the front wheels over the smallest of inclines perhaps it was around turn 4.....those were my favorite Audi races, IMSA GTO...re:the video @ time 2:25, kind of looks like the Audi is at Road America, coming up the hill out of turn 5(or I want it to be)
